VERSATILE MAYOR
TO OPPOSE McNARY
POLITICAL “BAD BOY” TO
RUN AGAINST IN
CUMBENT
SEATTLE, Wash., June 12 (TP).—
Senator Charles McNary, the Repub
lican whip from Oregon, has had
things pretty much his own way In
his home state. But now, for the
first time in many years, he faces
formidable opposition.
That opposition is coming from
Willis E. Mahoney, the aggressive
mayor of Klamath Falls and Demo
cratic nominee for the Senate. He
has a large personal following In ad
dition to having the support of the
Democratic and Townsend organiza
tions. *
Mahoney is a colorful and ingeni
ous personality. He is 40 years old
and looks more like a bank clerk
than a politician. The singular inci
dents surrounding his election as
mayor gives you an idea of his char
acter.
The clerk refused to put Mahoney’s
name on the ballot because he had
not lived there two whole years. He
refused to be stopped, however, and
took to the radio, appealing to the
people to write in his name.
The result was that he won out in
a three-cornered election. His oppo
nents again played on the residence
angle and brought legal action
against him. But Mahoney again
outwitted them. He skipped to Seat
tle until his term of office began,
then returned and affirmed that he
had been a Kalmath citizen for two
years.
A century ahead of his time: 125
years ago this month L. A. Berblinger,
a tailor of Ulm, Bavaria, leaped from
the city wall with wings on his shoul
ders, and crashed into the Danube as
thousands cheered. Ulm shops still
sell comic postcards of a man so rid
iculous as to try to travel by air.

YOUNG FOLK CAN’T COAX SWEETIES
TO BE ENGAGED THEY COMPLAIN
By VIRGINIA LEE
Two letters, both requiring personal
answers, with the same problem
came to me together. One is from a
girl who is in love with a young man;
the other from a man in love with
a girl. In the first case the girl
would like to win the man for her
own but he isn’t ready to settle down
to an engagement yet. In the second
the case is reversed, the young man is
anxious to become engaged, but the
girl is not ready to tie herself to one
man, although she admits she cares
for the boy.
Now, girls and boys, I know it
hurts like blazes when the One and
Only wants to go out with others and
wont’ give you the privilege of going
“steady” or of being engaged. But you
never, never can win a person by
holding the magainst their will. You
couldn’t be won that way either.
Give your beloved plenty of rope if
he or she feels restless. It is the only
safe thing to do. If the boy friend
says he wants to have dates with
other girls, tell him to go ahead. But
be sure to give him such good times
when he is with you that he can see
for himself that you are the one
with whom he can be appiest. You
may lose im, it is true, but if you
don’t happen to fill his specifications
for a wife, you won’t get him anyway,
and if you do you will, and he’ll have
the satisfied feeling that he picked
you, knowing that you were the one
he wanted. Better let him get the
yen to go with other girls out of his
system while he is young and free,
rather than later, when he has a
wife and maybe children. It will be a
tragedy then.
Don’t Mourn
And if he decides that another girl
suits him better, don’t mourn too
much. It sounds Pollyannish to say
that what happens is for the best, but
it often is if we work to make it so-
There are always—or nearly always—
other boys. And if not, well, there
are many happily unmarried women
in the world, too. There are so many
interesting things to do and places
to see, that it is hard to be unhappy
even if a woman doesn’t wed.
And the same is true when the
young man canont persuade the girl
he loves to accept his ring and go
with him alorn*. You, my boy, surely
don’t want to marry a girl who will
have the feeling that she is not quite
satisfied; some other boy might have
suited her better or, at any rate, she
would have been better satisfied to
have had experience in going out
with othr boys. You don’t want a
wife to feel that she has been rail
roaded into matrimony and have her
going about looking for a man who
may suit her better than you, do you?
Give her plenty of rope and she’ll
probably not go far. And if she
does meet someone else she likes bet
ter, better she do it now than later.
You too, like the girl in a similar
case, should make an effort to think
SA VAX. AH DAILY TIMES, FRIDAY, JUNE 12, 1936
%* i ■
that it is “all for the best,” and look
for another girl.
CONNIE: I am sorry to say that
your letter was delayed somewhere
along the line and did not reach me
in time to be answered. I hope you
did send the boy friends mother
some little gift for Mother’s day. It
would have ben a gracious thing to do.
M. L. Phares contributes: “Gunsen
houser, the real name of a real fam
ily, can be spelled 42,640 different
ways, and this doesn’t exhaust the
possibilities. If for n, mn as in
mnemomlcs, pn as in pneumonia, kn
as in knowledge, etc., and other in
tricacies of English spelling are in
cluded, the number of ways Gunne
sohnn-howse-ehrr can be spelled runs
into more than a million.”

This month the air waves will hum

lot of the listener to listen in on for
a long time.
June’s two major events are, of
course, the Republican and Demo

the air a good part of the time the
delegates are convening in Cleveland
and Philadelphia.
However, politics will be given a
good run by sports during the month

Women announcers will eventually
dominate in radio, though there now
are but few of them—according to
a noted radio observer. He gives as
reason—television.
The British Broadcasting system
has already indicated the trend by
selecting two very pretty girls for an
nouncers for the television service de
veloped by the BBC.
The two girls, 22-year-old Jasmine
Bligh and 23-year-old Eliabeth Cowell
are now announcing over the regular
radio system, to familiarize them
selves with the work. They were picked
from among 1,100 applicants.
